Can anyone tell me what is meant by "Mainframes Testing"?
Also, Plz let me know what r all d responsibilities of a
Manual Tester in Mainframes Testing? Plzzz reply!!

Answer Posted / lenin

OOps.. Im happy on seeing the above answers.. As a
Mainframe tester for the past 3 years let me brief what it
is..

In a very high level would say 'Testing a Mainframe
Application Manually / Automatically'

Similar to the manual testing, Mainframe testing also
follows SDLC (Software development life cycle), in which
the testing involves after the development phase. Once the
code which involves the mainframe (Coding may be from
COBOL, SAS, REXX ) coding is comleted, the corrsponding
compilers will be set up. If it is a COBOL code, a JCL is
required to compile and to execute the code.

The tester will be provided with the application (Cobol
code and the corresponding JCLS). As the tester having
his / her requirements in hand, he would have done with the
test cases based on the business requirement. So he will
prepare the test data to satisfy the business requirements
and execute the Cobol module using the provided JCL.

If he meets the Expected result the test wil be pass or
fail if not. If the test is failed, probably he would raise
a defect in the code and fix the same. The testign life
cycle goes like this.

If the tester gives sign off from his end, it is ready to
be promoted for User or into production.
